What is rebounding?
"2 minutes of rebounding is equivalent to 6 minutes of running, 10 minutes of swimming and 22 mins of walking. A 5-minute bounce is therefore equivalent to doing a quick jog around the block and 20 minutes offers similar benefits to health and fitness session of over an hour." - ReboundSA
Rebounding is a type of aerobic exercise that is performed while jumping on a mini-trampoline or a rebounder. Jumps can be fast or slow, and can be mixed with rest or aerobic stepping. It can be only cardio or a combination of cardio and strengthening exercises by using body weight, dumbbells or ankle weights for added resistance.
Benefits of rebounding
- Exercises the cells (cellercizing) – strengthening and cleansing every cell in your body with every bounce (including your muscles, eyes, ears, heart, major organs, skin etc).
- Increased energy levels throughout the day.
- Boosts lymphatic drainage, detoxifying the whole body and stimulating immune function.
- 68% more effective than running, without the impact stress on the ankle and knee.
- Increases bone and muscle density via the triple G-Force (gravity, acceleration and deceleration) of each bounce.
- Tones and firms the whole body, increasing lean muscle mass
- Minimizes the occurrence and duration of common ailments such as colds, allergies, sinusitis and constipation.
- Reduces sugar and carbohydrate cravings by circulating more oxygen to the tissue and establishing a better equilibrium between oxygen required by the tissues and oxygen made available.
- Improves coordination enhancing sport performance.
- Enhances proprioception the ability to sense the position, location and movement of the body and its parts.
